The animals were regularly observed and weighed. Food and water intake was determined.

Necropsy, organ weight measurements and histopathology revealed no toxicologically relevant alterations in the remaining organs investigated.
Therefore for humans a NOAEL of 1000 mg/kg bw is justified. - Executive summary:
DBD/RENACIT 10 was administered daily via gavage in Cremophor EL (2%)/tap water to 5 male and 5 female Wistar rats per dose group, in doses of 0, 100, 300 or 1000 mg/kg body weight for a period of 4 weeks.
The animals were regularly observed and weighed. Food and water intake was determined. Functional Observational Battery (FOB) as well as Motor and Locomotor Activity (MA/LMA) tests and clinical laboratory investigations on blood samples were performed. Organs and tissues were subjected to gross and histopathological investigations and selected organs were weighed.
The test substance was stable in the vehicle for the duration of use. Formulations given to the rats were prepared appropriately.
The survival rate, clinical appearance, body weight gain as well as food and water intake of the rats were not affected up to 1000 mg/kg.
FOB measurements and MA/LMA tests did not indicate neurotoxicity.
There was no indication of test substance-related changes in blood parameters. Beginning at 100 mg/kg an increase in liver weights was seen in males, which was correlated with liver enlargement. In females increased relative liver weights were noted at 1 000 mg/kg.
One of five males each showed distinct liver lobulation beginning at 300 mg/kg.
Centrilobular liver hypertrophy was diagnosed at 1000 mg/kg in males.
Taken together there were indications of adaptive liver reaction beginning at 100 mg/kg in males and at 1000 mg/kg in females.
The serum concentrations of sodium, potassium, were not affected by the treatment.
In the renal tubules of males at 300 mg/kg and above degenerations with increased accumulation of hyaline droplets, indicating a rat specific and not human relevant alpha-globulin nephropathy, was diagnosed. P2 and P3 segments of the cortical tubules were characterized by slight tubular dilation, luminal debris or cast and epithelial degeneration. Moreover, basophilic cortical tubules were raised by severity at 300 mglkg and above in males. Slight transitional cell hyperplasia occurred in the renal pelvis of 1/5 males each at 300 and 1000 mg/kg. In females, basophilic cortical tubules were slighty increased at 1000 mg/kg.
Taken together in the rat toxicologically relevant changes were evident in them kidneys beginning at 300 mg/kg in males and at 1000 mg/kg in females, where the alpha-globulin nephropathy and tubular basophilia are not supposed to be relevant for humans.
There was no morphological correlate to elevated heart weight of 1000 mg/kg males.
Necropsy, organ weight measurements and histopathology revealed no toxicologically relevant alterations in the remaining organs investigated.
Under the conditions described a no-observed-effect-level (NOEL) can not be determined for males due to adaptative changes in the liver considered to be not adverse. Deduced from species-specific kjdney alterations, the no-observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL) is assigned at 100 mg/kg for male and at 300 mg/kg (=NOEL) for female rats.

- Details on study design:
- Healthy young adult animals were acclimatized to the laboratory conditions for 5 days prior to the test. Before the test, animals are randomized and assigned to the treatment and control groups. An area of about 5×8 cm2 on the back of the animal was clipped free of hair. Repeat clipping or shaving were usually needed at approximately weekly intervals. Pepton 22 was administered on the hair-free site of the rats for 6 hours per day on a 5-day per week basis, for a period of 28 days.

Animals of the Low-dose group were conducted at the 40 mg/kg dose level, the Medium-dose group were conducted at the 200 mg/kg dose level, the High-dose group were conducted at the 800 mg/kg dose level, the Additional high-dose group were conducted at the 800 mg/kg dose level too, the Control group were given distilled water instead of tested compounds, with the same procedure as all the test groups.
- Positive control:
- The Control group was given distilled water instead of tested compounds, using the same procedure as all the test groups.
- Observations and examinations performed and frequency:
- Observation period: All animals were observed signs of toxicity, including the time of onset the degree and duration, everyday for a period of 28 days, but animals of Additional high-dose group scheduled for follow-up observations were kept for a further 14 days without treatment to detect recovery from, or persistence of, toxic effects.
Observation: A careful clinical examination was made once each day. Additional observations was made daily with appropriate actions taken to minimize loss of animals to the study. Necropsy or refrigeration of those animals found dead and isolation or sacrifice of weak or moribund animals.
Body weight: Body weight of each animal was recorded weekly and before necropsy.
Hematology test: Including erythrocyte count, hematocrit, hemoglobin concentration, platelet count, total and differential leucocyte count, thromboplastin time and partial thromboplastin time were investigated at the end of the test period.
Biochemistry test: Clinical biochemistry determination on blood was carried out at the end of the test period. Blood parameters of liver and kidney function are appropriate. The selection of specific tests was influenced by observations on the mode of action of the substance.
Include serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase(ALT), serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase(AST), gamma glutamyl transpeptidase(GGT), total bilirubin(TB), total serum protein(TP), albumen(ALB), blood creatinine(CRE) and urea nitrogen(BUN) measurements.
Gross necropsy: All animals in the study were subjected to a full gross necropsy which included examination of the external surface of the body, all orifices, and the cranial, thoracic and abdominal cavities and their contents. The liver, kidneys, adrenals and testes were weighed wet as soon as possible after dissection to avoid drying.
The following organs and tissues were preserved in a suitable medium for possible future histopathological examination: normal and treated skin, brain, heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidney, paranephroi, testis, epididymides, ovaries and uteruses.
Histopathology: Histological examination was performed with microscopy on H.E. stained slides of the preserved organs and tissues of all the tested groups and the control group. - Sacrifice and pathology:

>200 mg/kg/d in males
>200 mg/kg/d in females - Executive summary:
Although the Chinese test report suggests a NOAEL of 40 mg/kg/day, there is no evidence for this in the test report and minor blood parameter changes are conisdered adaptive. A NOEL of 200 mg/kg/day is suggested by the reviewer, based on adaptive changes and findings of low statistical significance. It is considered that there were no adverse effects at the highest treated group of 800 mg/kg/day.
The NOAEL is therefore estimated to be > 800 mg/kg/day.

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed
- Dose descriptor:
- NOAEL
- 800 mg/kg bw/day
- Study duration:
- subacute
- Species:
- rat
Additional information
The substance appears to be absorbed through dermal contact.
Changes reported in the subacute dermal study are conisdered to be adaptive. A group dosed at 800 mg/kg/day for 6 weeks showed no clinical signs or reduction in weight gain compared with controls and is considered to be the no adverse effect level.
Justification for selection of repeated dose toxicity via oral route - systemic effects endpoint:

Justification for selection of repeated dose toxicity dermal - systemic effects endpoint:

Justification for classification or non-classification
The 28 day oral study showed minimal effects with a NOAEL considered to be 1000 mg/kg/day.
Toxicologically relevant changes were evident in the kidneys beginning at 300 mg/kg in males and at 1000 mg/kg in females, where the alpha-globulin nephropathy and tubular basophilia are not supposed to be relevant for humans. Necropsy, organ weight measurements and histopathology revealed no toxicologically relevant alterations in the remaining organs investigated.
Although the Chinese dermal test report suggests a NOEAL of 40 mg/kg/day, there is no evidence for this in the test report and minor blood parameter changes are conisdered adaptive. A NOEAL of 400 mg/kg/day is suggested by the reviewer, but it is likely that there were no adverse effects at the highest treated group of 800 mg/kg/day.
